Default Re: My First Nana

It's October, so the 5-7 months will put the nanas in Jan-Feb or March, our coldest months. Will they still survive? I know commercial nanas are cut down green, and shipped that way. Can I do the same thing in December, when it might still be warm?

Or will wrapping them in blankets be enough? I'm going to pile plenty of mulch around them tomorrow and get ready with old towels, blankets, etc. As long as I keep it warm from freezing, will the nanas be okay?

Only the plant knows why on earth they decided to flower now, of all times. But sometimes here it's in the 80's through December. At least our weather isn't boring, just unpredictable.

I truly appreciate your help and advice. I went outside and looked again- the green part that I thought was leaves - they're tiny, little finger-sized nanas! Yipee!
